Rio Grande Portland Cement Corp - 1,527 words
Rio Grande Portland Cement Corp. Pueblo citizens
are facing a battle. It's a battle between common
citizens and those who are in favor of economic
development to decide on whether a cement plant
will call Pueblo its new home. It's a battle to
join together in order to educate those
individuals in charge about how building a cement
plant would cause more harm than create jobs. It's
a battle between the average citizen, concerned
about their health and the environment, and the
elected official, confident that their influence
will bring in a new business for the better of the
community. Rio Grande Portland Cement Corp. is
planning to build a $160 million, highly automated
cement plant 8 miles s ...

A View Of Modern Societ - 763 words
A View Of Modern Societ I wrote this to try and
take the reader on a journey. What you read here
is a direct reflection of the current state of our
society. I want to point out to you, the reader,
exactly what is happening in the undercurrents of
the digital frontier. Each image and video clip
that you witness is part of the greater whole of
the new Internet society that we all live in. It
is your voice that has made this view popular. We
are all fed up with the bland and tasteless media
that is shoved down our collective throats day
after day. When you go outside and see a billboard
for GAP clothing or SONY consumer devices you may
not realize that you are being programmed with
each glance. ...

All The Pretty Horses - 638 words
All The Pretty Horses John Grady Cole, the last in
a long line of west Texas ranchers, is, at
sixteen, poised on the sorrowful, painful edge of
manhood. When he realizes the only life he has
ever known is disappearing into the past and that
cowboys are as doomed as the Comanche who came
before them, he leaves on a dangerous and
harrowing journey into the beautiful and utterly
foreign world that is Mexico. In the guise of a
classic Western, All the Pretty Horses is at its
heart a lyrical and elegiac coming-of-age story
about love, friendship, and loyalty that will
leave John Grady, and the reader, changed forever.
When his mother decides to sell the cattle ranch
he has grown up working, John ...

Architecture - 1,297 words
Architecture One career that I have been
interested in for a long time is architecture.
Architects are involved in the negotiation,
design, and the supervision of construction of a
clients request. This may be from something as
simple as a house add-on, to something as grande
as a shopping mall. Architecture has interested me
for many years. I have always enjoyed the great
detail and thorough drawings that are involved.
The past two years I have taken the COPS and the
CAPS tests, and both of the results stated that
architecture would be a good career choice for me.
Throughout my high school and middle school years,
I have always done very well in math. It is good
that I learn all of the tech ...

Auguste Rodin - 1,079 words
Auguste Rodin Like some artists, Rodin was not an
overnight success. Even though he was rejected
numerous times from art schools because of his art
style, he prevailed in the end. Rodin, like many
artists, got their inspiration from other great
and famous artists. In Rodin's case, his
inspiration came from Michelangelo. In Rodin's
more famous works, one can see the similarities
between the two artists' artwork. Rodin's parents
were not wealthy, therefore, he was not able to
attend an art school of his choice. His father,
however, did send him to Petite cole, "a training
ground for commercial draftsman and
practiciens--cutters and finishers of work in
stone" (Hale 38). At the age of seventeen ...

to meet Berlioz. She saw him as a way out of debt,
so on October 3, 1833, they were married. In
December, he gave a performance of King Lear,

they developed a friendship. Berlioz wrote a piece
for him and turned it into Harold in Italy. In
1834, they had a son, Louis. Harriet's acting
career failed, and her beauty and health were
fading fast. She soon began drinking and was
turning into a shrew. Berlioz could not deal with
her anymore, and moved out and took a mistress
named Marie Recio, and opera singer. The next few
years after that, he traveled a lot with success

Causes Of The Mexican War - 1,613 words
Causes of the Mexican War The Mexican War lasted
from 1846-1848 in the area now known as Texas.
What began as several small disputes eventually
led into an armed conflict between the
considerably new nations of Mexico and the United
States. The geographical and political disputes
are the most likely causes of the war. These
causes of this war became significant, when the
outcome gave the United States a platform to
become one of the most powerful countries in the
world. The first sign of problems between the two
countries began when the United States bordered
Mexico after the Louisiana Purchase. "With these
areas now available, American settlers began to
move into them, and from there, they ...
